Controlling Connections with ADP's

14 New Member
Good evening folks:

I'm maintaining an Access ADP project that interfaces with a MS SQL Server 2000. I've been noticing looking at the sysprocesses table that for every user in the ADP access creates three processes no matter what the user is doing. Those three processes tend to expand depending on the number of operations being performed by the user.

My question is, letting Access manage the server connections appears to let access create multiple connections to the database. I'm curious if there's a way to force Access (again, having the ADP manage the connection automatically) to use as few connections as possible, or release connections / processes not in use.

If you're very quick you can write to Bill and get him to look into it - but he retires today so you may be a little late :D

More seriously, I suspect that's a "feature" of the product and not something you can control in code or by configuration.

Newbie here. I've got my database set up in SQL 2000, and have started an Access adp for a front end. I have 10 licenses, and at the moment the only accesses are the server through Remote Desktop and one person into the ADP. I started getting ODBC timeout errors when running a complex query, so I started poking around. In the logs there's messages saying the maximum of 10 user connections has been reached, over and over again. I'm...

Using A2K and adp. Is it necessary to open a connection (to SQL Server 2000) everytime you call a stored procedure or open a recordset? Or will opening a connection one time do, like at Form_Open?

A long time ago Larry Linson (MVP contributor to this group) made a point to me that mdb's could do anything ADP's (Access Projects) could by using linked tables to leverage Sql server databases. It's been years since then, and I still sometimes think about that statement when evaluating the usefulness of the ADP's I build. Larry and I discussed this technique and he found it "Credible" (hope you don't mind me quoting you sir) so what the...

I have a situation with an ODBC linked view in an Access 2000 MDB with a SQL 7 back end. The view is scrolling very slowly. However, if I open the view in an ADP file, it scrolls quickly. I needed to use an ODBC link for the view because it needs to be editable. Otherwise, I would have used a pass-through query. In previous discussions about using an MDB file vs. an ADP file as a front end for SQL Server, the impression I got was that...

I want to use Access 2000 as a front end to a SQL server database and have decided that Access 2K project is the way to go. This mean that I can largely reuse my existing forms and reports (with a bit of tweaking). I will need a number of stored procedures to call when processing data and have some example code using ADO to call these. This code involves creating a connection object each time, then detroying it when finished. My...

Hi all, I am about to distribute an A97-runtime app. which will be used on a LAN by approx. 30 users. The network is pretty good, but there are a few managers who have wireless laptops...

Hello All- We are in the process of converting the back end of our large MS Access application to PostgreSQL. My question today concerns linked tables and how their connections are managed by Access. It appears that Access does a *lot* of connecting and disconnecting to these linked tables. This is causing me a major headache, as I'd really like to store some session-based information in the back end that can be referenced by the linked...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
